In a strange world where Rose McGowan was continually on display, stardom soon became a personal nightmare of constant exposure and sexualization. Rose escaped into the world of her mind, something she had done as a child, and into high-profile relationships. Every detail of her personal life became public, and the realities of an inherently sexist industry emerged with every script, role, public appearance, and magazine cover. The Hollywood machine packaged her as a sexualized bombshell, hijacking her image and identity and marketing them.

New Respect for Rose McGowan
Revisado: 06-07-18
In the past, images of Rose McGowan would conjure a feeling inside me. Feelings of my own inadequacy because of her beauty because hollywood and advertising would like me to believe I am less than, because I don't rise up to this impossible standard. But also a feeling of distrust stemming from my assumption she gained her fame as a less than honorable starlet. I didn't relate to the TV shows where she and her costars wore revealing clothes, I wasn't interested in her acting career because I didn't think she had a brain. I never considered her backstory (or any other hollywood woman for that matter), as I examined her body, and her face underneath scathing headlines over the years. With this book, she has single handedly shattered my perception of not only her fame, but hollywood. Holy cow! I didn't know she was in an Indy film and had a promising career in that genre. Now I'm piecing together other stories I've heard about the politics of hollywood on up to the politics of well, politics. Thank you Rose for being a brave soul to take a stand and tell your story. I had my husband listen to it as well. I now consider myself part of the Rose Army! ~ Consider yourself fist bumped girl!

Lisa Bloom fears that women are in danger of spiraling into a nation of dumbed-down, tabloid-media-obsessed, reality TV addicts. Too often, they outsource matters to "experts" and in doing so neglect to truly think for themselves. But she has the solution and it involves one simple word: Think.

What did you love best about Think?
I'm now a fan of Lisa Bloom. Her perspective is well explained and her convincing suggestions are enlightening and freeing.
What was the most compelling aspect of this narrative?
Lisa's style of speaking almost candidly, as if she is talking to a friend is what makes the narrative wonderful.
What about Lisa Bloom’s performance did you like?
Lisa's style of speaking almost candidly, as if she is talking to a friend is what makes the narrative wonderful.
What’s the most interesting tidbit you’ve picked up from this book?
Read the New York Times and other Pullitzer prize winning books. Although I'm not one who watches television or reads tabloids, I was touched by her description of the dichotomy between Angelina Jolie and the tabloid and "news" portrayal of this incredible woman.
Any additional comments?
But where is the PDF with her recipes?
